Endless Speculation

[disconinjafrog]

Who: Yosuke, Yukiko, Chie, Nanako, Kanji, Rise, Dojima, AU Yosuke, AU Souji
Where: The Amagi Inn
Summary: It's time to have a lot of Investigation Team discussions...
Warnings: None

With both their Leader and Naoto gone from the city, the team was feeling a little distraught without them. Yosuke in particular had to get on the ball quickly with these new circumstances as the unofficial 'second-in-command', and the Investigation Team needed some regrouping and fast reorganizing.

The first order of business was to decide how to stay in close contact with these dangerous times coming about, and loyalties to certain factions being rather shaken after recent events. While the entire team had originally been stationed within the Libra apartment complex, Yukiko, Chie, and Nanako were all currently living in the Amagi Inn. After some thought and discussion, it had been decided that the best course of action was to move the entire team into the inn, at least as a secondary home, considering it was free housing that was much more spacious than what was offered in the assigned apartment complexes. At least that way, the team was never too far apart. It offered some semblance of greater unity now that their Leader was missing.

Once everyone was settled in the inn, however, some business needed to be taken care of. A new leader of the Investigation Team needed to be officially decided, first off; Yosuke didn't want to just assume the position without his friends' consent, of course. On top of that, they needed to figure out what to do with Adachi who was now in the city, along with the circumstances in general... and then there was the matter of the two doubles: Yosuke's own double along with the double of Yu, the one mysteriously named Souji.

Dojima also needed to be informed of the situation at hand... something that was definitely going to be a mess to handle.

All in all it was going to be a pretty busy day...

[OOC: This log will be split up into four parts: a mingling section in the inn, the IT discussion, talking to the AU versions of Yosuke and the P4 protagonist to get them to join the IT, and explaining the magic of Persona to Dojima in his hospital room.

The discussion will be further broken up into several parts including: instating Yosuke as the leader, discussing Adachi, discussing what to do with the AU characters, and discussing the situation of Hinoto-Ri as a whole (the Government versus the Anoli, etc.)

There's no real strict tagging order, and not all threads are necessary to finish, but please keep up when you can and track the ones you're in, particularly if it's the discussions~]

"Chie, we're trying not to scare them away."

Yukiko is quiet when she spoke up, but it was enough to be heard by everyone. Don't mind her, she's been doing double work and the girl is exhausted.

"I just want to know what happened to them back home and if we can do anything to help."

[get_bent]

"Wait, you think somethin' different happened to them?"

Well Kanji, the fact that you hadn't seem them and they weren't trying to find any of the Investigation Team was probably a big clue.

...but he was probably too busy running from fangirls for the past few days to think about it.

"When I saw Souji that night, he was asleep on a bench. He didn't look very good." the priestess replied looking downwards.

"He told me that it was November before he came here."

Everyone should know the meaning in that sentence but she continued on. "I led him here so he could get some rest and maybe explain what happened but he left the next morning without any trace."

[get_bent]

Well, that wasn't good. Kanji knew all too well of what November might imply.

"Tch. So they might be tryin' to avoid us."

Still, that got him seriously pissed! He had no idea what had happened there, but he wasn't going to just pass by those guys like it there was no problem! They were the Investigation Team, dammit!

"Yeah. If they're in trouble back home, it just means we need to try harder to help them," Rise said, chiming in once she'd caught up to the idea. She'd seen doubles of people around before, she just...

"I just never really expected there to be more than one Yu-senpai around, let alone Yosuke too."

[disconinjafrog]

"I met both of them by the memorial wall the day all of that graffiti started spreading around town... I honestly thought it was Yu at first, but Souji seems a little different... I want to know what the hell happened to them."

Yosuke gives a bit of a sigh and runs one hand through his hair. "We should try and track them down and talk to them, find out what happened to them in 'their world.' We shouldn't all go visit them at once, though. They already seem pretty paranoid. I mean, they won't even trust any of us, and Yu is my best friend... I don't know if it's the same with Souji, but it has to be a big deal if they're so scared they keep running off without a trace."

There was no posting order right

"I'm pretty sure I can find them," Rise replied. "As long as we're in the same world and, you know, reasonably close, I think I can find anyone on the team."

"I'm just...not really sure how to start up a conversation when they don't want to talk to us."

right!!

[disconinjafrog]

"If it's just a few of us, they shouldn't get scared so easily, and if worse comes to worse we could just message their COMPs... I'd still rather meet them in person, though. It'd be harder for them to dodge us that way. But before we start throwing questions at them, we should try and make them feel more comfortable with us..."

How, exactly, he wasn't entirely sure. "Anyone have any ideas, besides offering them a place to stay?"

[celebrity_commentator]

"We could always find out what went wrong for them and help somehow?" she suggested. "That might not be a great idea, but if it'll help them out we should offer..."
